A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Environmental Protection Agency relating to “Modification to the Start of the Submission Period for Perfluoroalkyl and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) Reporting and Recordkeeping Under TSCA 8(a)(7)”.
Key claim: SJRES187 would disapprove the EPA rule that modified the start of the submission period for PFAS reporting and recordkeeping under TSCA section 8(a)(7).
Abstract
(SJRES187 · 119th Congress) Latest action (2026-07-28): Placed on Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders. Calendar No. 532.
Why this matters
TSCA 8(a)(7) is the one-time, look-back PFAS reporting mandate that will produce the most comprehensive federal inventory of PFAS manufacture and import since 2011, and its submission window has already been administratively delayed. A CRA disapproval of EPA’s modification would unwind that delay and could destabilize the reporting schedule, affecting both regulated manufacturers/importers preparing submissions and downstream regulatory work that depends on the resulting dataset.
